Snowdonia Expedition.

Spend a night under the stars in the mountains of Snowdonia.

This is a two day expedition with an over night camp.

A guided wild camping expedition in the mountains of Snowdonia.

What better way to explore the incredible mountains of Snowdonia than with an over night expedition. We will aim to tick off at least one major summit, cover basic navigation and hill waking skills, and hopefully watch the sunset/sunrise!

Itinerary
